Nosey Not Me But

Well you know me I’ve never been one to nosey But I just happen to be stood by the window Behind the net curtains With a pair of binoculars in my hand I heard a lot of noise from number 42 Across the road They are unloading a furniture van . It looks like John and Ethel Did a moonlight flit But they were getting on a bit . Oh the furniture that’s going in Is so tacky I wouldn’t even put it In my wheelie bin Hmmm orange curtains and plastic flowers A plastic pig no wheels on bricks And look at the state of the carpet Could do with some Shake and vac And cleaned up a bit . There’s twenty kids stood outside And now they have gone in They all look the same Lanky and thin . Their playing loud music You could hear it in Kimberworth park From South Anston It’s only half past three And not even dark . Hold on! What’s this? Somebody has climbed a tree And is watching me Through a pair of binoculars Well!, The nosey thing!!! . Peter Dome©2020.
